Fun With Technology!

My sweet husband got me a surface tablet.  I love it.  He got it for me to use in my art room.  Although I love photos taken of cats assisting artists in their studios, my babies help me a little too much.  I don't mind having them parade in front of the screen or jump on the keyboard while I'm typing, but I prefer that they sit and stay while I'm painting.  If you know cats, you know that is not going to happen:)  The cats have complete access to the room where we have our desktop.  However, I can escape to my art room with my tablet.  I've been playing with it a little - finding reference photos on the Internet.  Now, I have to find out how to have access to our photos using my tablet.  Jim is taking a nap right now, so that will have to wait.

Last week, we went to the lodge on Mt. Charleston for lunch.  We ate out on the deck, breathing in the fresh mountain air, surrounded by pine trees and hummingbirds.  It was heavenly.

Thank you for my tablet and thank you for the awesome lunch, Baby.

Bonjour chère amie,

Je me réjouis d'apprendre que vous avez reçu votre tablette qui va vous apporter beaucoup.

Il n'est pas facile de peindre en présence de matous !... Ils veulent participer à la création...

Cette photo que vous nous montrez est sublime... La joie explose !

Quel doux moment que celui de déjeuner dehors en présence de colibris... Je n'en ai jamais vue pour de vrai !... Vous êtes chanceuse.

Gros bisous ♡

Hi, Deb! It's good to hear from you. If you ever come to Las Vegas, you have to go to Mt. Charleston and have lunch at the old lodge. It really is fun and the food is excellent!

Sheryl, I'm so glad to hear from you. I'm coming over to check your latest post.
